  • Numbers in Parentheses and Further
    FPA Town Hall Middle East Realignment: Great Decisions Lecture Series Wednesday, January 25, 2012 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM Featuring: Shibley Telhami, Anwar Sadat Professor for Peace and Development, University of Maryland, College Park Shibley Telhami: Thanks very much. It's a real honor to be here and to start this great series this year. I know I've participated in the past in this series and it's really a terrific one. I'd like to offer you some reflection on the events that have swept through the Middle East in the past year. And I want to do it in perspective by offering you a comparison that might be helpful. A few months ago I was in China. I was asked to reflect not only on what international powers including China should be doing in a chan ging Middle East, but as you can imagine many Chinese were curious could it happen to us. And that question, could it happen to us, forced me to reflect on the events in the Middle East in a slightly different way. And so what I'd like to do today is off ering you sort of my conclusions in thinking about the comparison between the Middle East and China when it comes to social and political change. And in the process gain some lever over what's happening. Now let me start by giving you a little bit of context. I know that everyone around the world including rulers in the Middle East, including American leaders, including scholars, analysts, journalists who have watched the Middle East very closely were taken by surprise by the timing of the revolutions in Tunisia and Egypt, by the rapid pace of change that occurred.

  • Ziadeh Lecture 2009Ziadeh Lecture 2009
    ZIADEH LECTURE 2009 ZIADEH LECTURE 2009 Near Eastern Languages and Civilization The Farhat J. Ziadeh Distinguished Lecture in Arab and Islamic Studies Dear Friends and Colleagues, It is my distinct privilege to provide you with a copy of the seventh Farhat J. Ziadeh Distinguished Lecture in Arab and Islamic Studies, “Rethinking the ‘Muslim World’ Paradigm,” delivered by Shibley Telhami on April 22, 2009. The Ziadeh Fund was formally endowed in 2001. Since that time, with your sup- port, it has allowed us to strengthen our educational reach and showcase the most outstanding scholarship in Arab and Islamic Studies, and to do so always in honor of our dear colleague Farhat Ziadeh, whose contributions to the fields of Islamic law, Arabic language, and Islamic Studies are truly unparalleled. Farhat Ziadeh was born in Ramallah, Palestine, in 1917. He received his B.A. from the American University of Beirut in 1937 and his LL.B. from the University of London in 1940. He then attended Lincoln’s Inn, London, where he became a Barrister-at-Law in 1946. In the final years of the British Mandate, he served as a Magistrate for the Government of Palestine before eventually moving with his family to the United States. He was appointed Professor of Law and Islamic Stud- ies at Princeton University, where he taught until 1966, at which time he moved to the University of Washington. The annual lectureship in his name is a fitting tribute to his international reputation and his national service to the discipline of Arabic and Islamic Studies. The event and publication would not be possible without the generous support of many con- tributors including students, colleagues, friends, and above all Farhat and Suad themselves, and their family members.

  • 2019 Overview
    2019 Overview Since its founding in 1981, the Middle East Policy Council (MEPC) has dedicated its programs and publications to improving American understanding of the politics and societies of the Arab world and the broader Middle East, and to promoting thoughtful discussion and debate about American interests and U.S. policies in the region. The Council has a strong reputation for supporting balanced, unbiased and intellectually rigorous discussion and analysis of the Middle East and of U.S. national interests there, and for promoting mutual understanding and partnership to strengthen U.S. relations with the peoples and countries in the region. Due to the wide distribution of our educational materials, and the broad media coverage of our programs, the Council’s impact is particularly strong beyond the Washington, DC, community and in the region. In 2019 MEPC achieved several new milestones in its core programs, special events, and outreach efforts. The Council’s quarterly Capitol Hill Conferences, quarterly journal Middle East Policy, TeachMideast program for students and educators, media engagement, and digital platforms all reached new heights in 2019. Following is an overview of MEPC’s 2019 activities and achievements. Capitol Hill Conferences The Council is unique in having a several-decades-long history of convening conferences dealing with the Middle East on Capitol Hill. These programs foster engagement with members of Congress and their staffs as well as executive-branch officials, opinion leaders, journalists, academics, diplomats, and members of the business community. Our four 2019 Capitol Hill Conferences – our 95th, 96th, 97th, and 98th such events – took place in the Russell Senate Office Building on January 16th, April 12th, July 19th, and October 25th.

    U.S. Middle East Policy and the Peace Process Henry Siegman Senior Fellow and Director, U.S./Middle East Project CONTENTS Acknowledgments Preface Executive Summary Findings and Recommendations Introduction The End of Incrementalism Defining American Interests in the Middle East U.S. Priorities in the Peace Process The Syrian-Israeli Track The Need for a Bold Initiative: A New Declaration of Principles Refugees The Palestinian Economy The Role of Allies in the Peace Process Preparing for a Middle East at Peace Members of the Task Force Dissenting Views Additional Views ACKNOWLEDGMENTS The work of the independent Task Force on U.S. Middle East Policy and the Peace Process went through several stages, each contributing significantly to the final product. During the initial study phase of its work, the Task Force was chaired by former Senator William S. Cohen, who resigned from his chairmanship and from the Task Force when he was nominated by President Clinton to serve as secretary of defense in December 1996. During this initial study phase, the work of the Task Force was organized and directed by Stephen P. Cohen, president of the Institute for Middle East Peace and Development, who produced summaries and syntheses of presentations made to the Task Force by a wide range of Middle East experts and of the Task Force's own deliberations. In the second phase of the Task Force's work, a new document was prepared by two members of the Task Force, Shibley Telhami and Dov Zakheim. That document, which underwent change in significant respects, served as a basis for the Task Force's final recommendations.
